Raising children is difficult and often overwhelming. Raising children to follow Christ in today’s culture seems practically impossible.
Your children are impressionable. The world will seek to impress upon them its values and standards. However, your prayers and your intentional example have the capacity for the most lasting impression. Your belief in them and your faith in front of them is both inspiring to them and aspiring for them.
